Just re-watched Froch/Pascal

One thing that stands out is Froch's love of a scrap. Pascal caught him with some good shots and just as it looked ike he was going to get the upper hand Froch fired back like a crazy man.

His attitude reminded me a lot of Nigel Benn.

 

Pascal doesn't hit so hard. His ko ratio is falling at each fight. You're right though about his attitude. All Froch's strategy is based on waiting his opponent to move and to jump on him at this moment. He has to do that because his footwork doesn't allow him to chase the other fighter. It has worked well for him, until he faces a smart fighter with a good timing.

 

I have watched all his fights. Pascal can knock a guy like Nievas. Above, he cannot. Too much flaws in his game to be able to land that kind of left on a good boxer.

 

Pascal's KO ratio was falling but after the Norman fights he's been making a serious effort to sit down on his punches and throw with more power. His last KO was KO of the year type stuff. Just a peach of a punch.

 

Or retitled to "Battle of the Windmills". atsch

 

thats it, facepalm one of the most entertaining fights of the year.

. I guess we know your orientation now. :deal I guess you are entertained by lack of skill. Good for you. Froch is definitely your guy. :rofl Of course, I guess you only know what the commentators tell you to know. I'm really going to enjoy Saturday night. :yep

 

Yes but again, who is Nievas...:-(

 

Pascal has all the tools to be a TOP fighter...All he needs to do is to put it all together...IMO if he worked with a guy like Freddie Roach or Floyd SR they would bring the best out of him...

 

I don't know who will win this fight, but if Froch does win it will be a great win for him and his future. I think Taylor might outbox him, but pressure can get to Taylor like Pavlik did. Only way to find out is to watch TV Saturday night.

 

I don't know if Froch's footwork is good enough to pressure Taylor. It's all about how Taylor fights this one really.

 

I hope Froch wins cause his fights are generally more entertaining than Taylor's.

 

Oh God your not one of those guys that claim their entertained by 'boxing clinics' with guys dancing round each other and such. Go re-watch PBF-Baldomir. If you want to be entertained watch the war on Saturday.

 

You know why no one was knocked out in Froch/Pascal? These guys don't know how to throw a punch. To each their own though. atsch

 

please do not underestimate pascal.he is a quality fighter,so that win was better than it looked for froch.
before that fight i would of given froch no chance against taylor but now i am 50/50.
